Why do people like Tik Tok?

[Dirty Diamond]

Seriously, why?

It doesn't have any of the features that would make a video site desirable in any way.
It is conformed to be Chinese spyware.
The most popular videos are either of really stupid shit intended for toddlers or things that were stolen from other people.
And the visual format is vertical, which makes things really awkward if you use your phone to watch videos horizontally.

Again, why do people like this app?

The average teenager these days has the attention span of a dead opossum. It caters to this.

 

[Marche]

Nobody over the age of 16 should use Tiktok and the ones who do are pedophiles.

That and they're attention seeking whores. Once they found out a few people got famous off if it, they all think they can be the next big thing

Ask the people who use it

 

[Scheele's Green]

Why? Because they're preteens or prepreteens or preprepreteens. Some users might still be gestating. Or at least their brains are.

 

[Without A Gout]

Because people like their shit in short, bite-sized pieces that don't force them to think about anything. People are retarded and there isn't much we can do about it.

um, i guess it's not a great platform for feature length documentaries, but not everyone wants to watch an 80 minute long film like 哈罗，比基尼

 

[Big Ruski]

Unwarranted self importance

 

[Moff Ensign]

People watching like it because they don't have the attention span to watch anything meaningful, people making tiktoks like the attention they get for their low effort content

 

[Agent Abe Caprine]

Remember Vine and Music.ly? Combine the worst aspects of them and you get Tiktok. Up the runtime a bit and you have something even worse. Now there's enough time for 60 year old men to ramble about their sissy fetish.

Hedonism.

I heard social media was designed to be addictive.

It's also that dopamine hit from internet asspats.

It started with friend whoring on MySpace. I remember how people used to brag about how many "friends" they had. I bet if MySpace hadn't have exploded over that shit, Facebook would have remained college only.

 

[Catnip Smokes]

When the Internet started to develop e-celebrities, lots of kids wanted to chase that fame, platforms like TikTok are catered to that demographic.

 

[Gender: Xenomorph]

TikTok is the logical devolution of social media. Shorter content, faster boost of dopamine...

I'm legit sorry for people who are addicted to it. This format is directly responsible for many social media/internet addicts of our generation.

I'm pretty sure this influx of dopamine messes with people at a chemical level too...

 

[The Last Stand]

Why do people like pineapple on pizza?

The world is full of strange people.

 

[Kiwi & Cow]

Honestly I keep seeing people jump over to the new trendy social media every now and then and they probably do it because everyone else does it, it started with Myspace, continued with Facebook, then Vine, then Instagram and finally TikTok. I am not going to count Twitter because it always was in this limbo where it was somewhat trendy and the cool kids would sign up there, but it never blew up like Facebook did.

I can guarantee you that it's going to die in a few years like every other (Except Instagram) social media I mentioned up there.

When it's not social media, then it's messaging apps. Everyone lumps themselves into the same messaging apps. Everyone has Whatsapp and I never understood the appeal to it.

 

[MG-34]

My theory is retards that think they'll hit e-fame like the hundreds of losers that tried to be angry video game reviewers and copy cat the AVGN back in the day or the losers that make the stupid prank videos that are mostly LARPers.

 

[Niggernerd]
